India just saved the umpires job.

More and more technology would ruin the game. After all its a gentleman's game.

Play with the right spirit.

BCCI is behaving like a di*k. All sporting bodies are embracing technology, there should be less controversy behind some decision on field, and technology will make that happen.

More technology would save lot of match results... umpires are humans and there are many famous cases where their errors cost dearly to the player and team as well and hence changing match results.

India is only against the tech because BCCI knows the multi billion dollars gambling that runs the cricket in the underworld. Most matches are fixed any ways and if the tech comes into hand, than the umpires cant make a decision in someones favor. India wants to keep the game as it is so they can continue to buy umpires, officials and players.

Just because you didn't world cup after 1992. doesn't me you should bash India. All know players of which country are charged over match-fixings etc.

looks like the scrap face sharad pawr is takin lessons from mamata di, oppose blindly to anything that brings progress, whats their problem after all if the vid tech is used ? but make sure the tech is 100% fool proof, unlike the snickometre or the hot spot tech which failed in India England recent test series (VVS Laxman/ michael vaughn vasline issue)

 

[arushbhai]

India would never allow this new tech to be a part of modern cricket otherwise who is going to run the multi billion dollar gambling industry in india which feeds BCCI.

Nobody is jealous of that haram ka paisa. If PCB wanted to increase its revenue 10 folds they couldve also fueled the gambling industry in pakistan to get millions of dollars in return. Lets not talk about the revenue because if its about revenue than Australia has been a world champion numerous times, they couldve easily made hundreds of millions of dollars. Dont divert the topic to a different issue. What we are saying is BCCI doesnt want the tech to be a part of cricket because than they cant buy umpires who play a huge role in deciding the match.
